Cornelius Barber, son Of Howard
Barber, of this city, aged about 16 years,
found q pistol in one Of our streets on
Monday afternoon of this week. It was
very rusty aud dirty, but of course, boy
like, be must examine it, and while doing
so it discharge ball, together with
wads and powder, diagonally through the
left wrist. The wads and burning pow
dor were dangerous things to add to the
severity of the wound. DIR. Frank W.
Larson has the case in charge. Doctor
L. says the wound is followed by some
hemorrhage at times, as small arteries
were severed in the wound, and it will take
= few days before its danger win be de-
termined, as the burned powder which
was driven into the adjoining parts, may
cause complications.

Fatal Accident.
Last Friday morning, the wife and
daughter Of Mr.. D. B. 6ebold, living near
Mount Airy, visited this city In carriage
to mako purchases st the stores. On
their way home, after turning OFF from
the York road toward their residence, the
horse SHE'D at something, just as they
we're crossing small bridge. The wheels
on one side Of lhe carriage ran of the
bridge, frightening the horse still more,
and he ran away. He had run but a short
distance before he ran into side ditch,
and fell, throwing both occupants out Of
the carriage. Mrs. Sebold fell near Che
horses heels and received several kicks.
She died in few moments-it is sup
posed from broken neck or from heart
trouble, the wounds from the kick of tho
horse not being deemed sufficient to cause
her death. Her daughter Ella was stun
ned by her fall, but escaped with a slight
scalp wound.
This accident caused shock to this
community where the family is we'll
known, and Mr. 6eboid las the sincere
sympathy Of our people In his sad bereaye-
ment.
The funeral occurred yesterday after
noon and was unusually large. Rev. w.
W. Bullock, Of this city, preached the
sermon. and the interment took place at
Holcombe Riverview Cemetery.

Products Of tho missouri slope.

Consumers would be surprised, says
the Duluth Journal, were they to note the
difference in the potatoes raised on the
plans Of western Dakota and those
grown in the Red River valley or tho
prairie regions of Minnesota. Those
grown In tho country about Bismarck,
for instance, are never waterY, never hol-
low at the core, never decay in part in
the hill, and are usually a clean and
smooth as hens eggs. They are large
and uniform in size and very mealy. The
potatoes grown on the Missouri Slope
are not equaled by those grown IN any
other country. Oats grown on the Slope
are IS per cont heavier than eats grewn
in other portions of Dakota, and the
wheat is also heavier and better. There
are mineral elements in the soil Qims and
gypsum. probably that make this. These
elements crop out in the grasses and are
shown in the dairy products and IN the
character of the beef produced.
